Features (planned v1)

• Tiling layout (horizontal / vertical split)
• Global keybinding system
• Multi-monitor support
• Workspace management
• YAML configuration

Architecture

SharpWM/
├── src/
│   ├── SharpWM.Common/     # Shared types: container tree, WmState, Rect
│   ├── SharpWM.Platform/   # Windows API interop (monitors, windows, hotkeys)
│   ├── SharpWM.Config/     # YAML config parsing
│   ├── SharpWM.Core/       # Command dispatcher, event loop
│   └── SharpWM/            # Entry point
└── tests/
    └── SharpWM.Tests/      # Unit tests (xUnit)

The WM state is represented as a container tree:

Root → Monitor → Workspace → SplitContainer → Window

All state mutations go through WmState in SharpWM.Common.
